Lily Collins ditches the new Evil Dead

If only Llly Collins had actually said, "f*ck this remake" and dropped it. Instead, the actress can't take on the role of female Ash due to scheduling issues.

Variety's Jeff Sneider shared this with the masses on Twitter:

"Again, in case you missed it, LILY COLLINS is OUT of THE EVIL DEAD reboot due to a scheduling issue. Agents, start your engines..."

Which actress will step in now? Or maybe they will decide to push it back further (April 12, 2013) and do a rewrite with a male lead? Yeah, I suppose that's wishful thinking. Any suggestions for the role?

The film will be directed by Fede Alvarez with a script from Diablo Cody. There's also a new take on the original: "Mia and David, estranged siblings who have recently lost their mother (Mias taking it the hardest being that shes the one who spent most days at the hospital watching her mother deteriorate) have reunited, along with some old friends and his Davids fiancee, for an intervention at THAT old cabin. Its here that the near rehabilitated Mia will also toss the last of her drugs down the well and finally go cold turkey."
